Snowcrash Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Looks like they're playing a second division team, KV Mechelen. With a player valuation of about 10M Pounds according to Transfermarkt, that's significantly below that of Gent which has a valuation of 60M Pounds. Mechelen will probably bunker and play for PK's and try to exploit on the counter when possible. I'm guessing David will play his usual CAM and a big plus for Gent is that he doesn't neglect his defensive duties at all. Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrock Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 11 hours ago, Jith12 said: David's Gent play in the Belgian Cup final tomorrow, and winning the cup will be very important to them. They are currently in last place in the league championship playoffs, which means that their hopes of Europa League qualification via the league route is nearly zero. However, if they win tomorrow's cup final, they will earn a berth in the Europa League group stage. Playing Europa League would be great for David's development (assuming that he stays with Gent for next season), so a win tomorrow would be great for him. He started on the bench the last game I guess to spare him cause he's starting right now. Wouldn't surprise me if he plays a HUGE game!

Boominbooty Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Gent loses 2-1. Disappointing close out to the season for the team. Had a couple of Europa League options and they don’t make it. I wonder if this accelerates David’s departure. Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheeta Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Wow. That 1st one is outstanding. Great placement on the 2nd, but arse defending. Two sharp hits regardless. Cheeta like. johnyb, Cblake and hamiltonfan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowcrash Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 (edited) The defensive coverage on David's header was straight out of MLS 1.0 when you had starting CB's making $60K a year. Still, credit to David for a fine finish. Edited May 11, 2019 by Snowcrash Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strait Red Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Poor defending on the second goal, but very nice subtle off the ball movement by David. Made a few small moves to distance himself from the defender and scored a nice one. Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aird25 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 He seems like such a composed player already. He always looks controlled and balanced, so that he can place his shots or weight his through balls properly.

There were a couple of free headers there, however most of his goals required some great composure to finish them off, I think it will be tough to keep him off the field for our MNT! jordan, apbsmith, hamiltonfan and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
